VESSELS IN COLLISION.
TANKER AND LINER. NEITHER SERIOUSLY DAMAGED, (Official Wireless.) (Received April 26, 9.30 a.m.) RUGBY, April 25. A collision which took place off Dungeness between the German giant liner Bremen, of 46.500 tons, and a small British tanker, the British Grenadier, of 7000 tons, had fortunately no very serious results. It took place in a dense fog. The Bremen was not damaged. She sent a wireless message to the shore stating that she had collided with a tanker, named unknown, which might need assistance. The tanker, however,, sent out a wireless message that two of her tanks were leaking, but she did not require assistance, and was proceeding to Deal to land a supernumerary who required immediate medical attention. The Bremen, which was outward bound from Bremerhaven, is due at Southampton this evening, having been delayed by the fog
